George’s place is a hidden oasis near to a beautiful waterfall, and close to the beach. It is only a short drive to the town of dominical and uvita, where there is lots of restaurants, activities, and sights to see. The place was clean, spacious and had everything we needed for our stay. We stayed 1 week, and wished we could have stayed longer! George’s place is surrounded by jungle and wildlife. A serene and peaceful getaway, yet close to everything. Other reviews mentioned there was no hot water, but this is incorrect. George’s place has hot water which is an added plus. I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting uvita or the surrounding areas. Thank you so much george, we look forward to visiting your place again ☺️

George was super friendly and attentive. We were well received and welcomed. In many places, he also accommodated us. Made us coffee or opened my coconut outside the grounds were very nice and there were also some animals to marvel at. Freddy the house dog was also super gracious. Unfortunately, the accommodation was rather loveless inside. The biggest problem was probably the insects. Mosquitoes outside are to be expected close to the river. Even the one or the other ant inside is not the end of the world. However, there is no reason for cockroaches in the crowd as they were present in my opinion. When I arrived at the next Airbnb, I fell out of my jacket...yikes. Don't leave anything around and close everything tightly to bags.

We chose this location mainly due to its proximity to many attractions. Very close to Nauyaca waterfalls, 1 hour from Manuel Antonio, 40 minutes from Uvita (Marino Ballena National Park), 15 minutes from Dominical & 35 minutes from San Isidro el General (suggestion: go to the farmers market on Thursdays - amazing!). We stayed at this location for 7 nights and used this property as a "base camp" for our daily excursions. The location was perfect. The grounds at George's property are full of wonderful citrus trees, flowers and coconut trees. Daily, we saw toucans (look for them about 30 minutes before sunset), hummingbirds & spectacular Oropendola's. At the back of the property, there is a place where you can see the amazing sunsets. George is very pleasant and has a wealth of knowledge of the area and what to do, what to avoid, etc. We had some great conversations with him. His companion dog, Freddy is very gentle. Overall, we loved our stay here.

George's place is immersed in the jungle. Birds and beasts right outside the window, oh my (no worries, nothing harmful, all friendly critters). The accommodations are clean and bright, and supplied with everything you need to feel at home. We had a great visit and will definitely return soon. Pura Vida!

George's place is in a great location. The cabins are duplex-style, nice and roomy, decor is fairly basic, but clean. My one-bedroom unit had a very large walk-in closet, a little dining area, kitchenette, and front-room. There is no air conditioning, but the ceilings are high and vented, ceiling fans in front room and bedroom were sufficient. Nights were pleasantly cool, needing only the light blanket that was provided. The landscaping is very nice, getting up the hill to the parking area was a challenge the first time up, but once you get used to it, it is manageable. It was a short drive down to Dominical, where I often went to enjoy the incredible sunsets!

Beautiful accommodation in a peaceful location at about 750m altitude in the mountains off Dominical. Very nice excursions possible, including to the Nauyaca Waterfall and the beaches of Dominical, Quepos and Manuel Antonio. The place is spacious, albeit a bit outdated. It should be noted that there is no hot water and no air conditioning. George is a very friendly and helpful host and happy to help with questions and issues.

This place is great. Great location close to Dominical and also Nauyaca waterfall. Comfortable with everything you might need and Jurek was a great host. Very easy to communicate and very accommodating. I wish I could have spent more time enjoying the beautiful gardens. The space is very quiet, especially for being so close to the road. It is very easy to get to in a convenient location but still very peaceful and easy to sleep without hearing the trucks driving by all night. I would definitely stay here again.

George was a super awesome host! His place is about a 10 minute drive from dominical and just around the corner from the falls. The home was stocked with everything we needed during our stay. Even though our plans changed last minute and we had to leave earlier than expected, George was super understanding and accommodating of our situation. We enjoyed it!
